9 THE DESERT Deserts are ls where the climate is very dry. Deserts are often hot, though they become cool at night. It can be months or years between rains in a desert. Desert plants have thick bark waxy leaves to help them save water. Some store water in their roots or stems. Some examples of desert plants are cactuses, aloe vera, yucca. Many desert animals stay out of the sun in the daytime, come out at night. Insects, spiders, reptiles, birds, small nocturnal carnivores live in the desert. A place in the desert where there are underground springs that provide water is called an oasis. The largest desert in the world is the Sahara in North Africa. In the Southwestern United States, there is a river that flows through the desert. In some deserts, minerals are mined; in others, oil is pumped. There are deserts in North South America, Africa, Asia, Australia. Gentle Shepherd 2009
